I just think actions should have consequences so if you kill a character off in a fight to the death, don't keep bringing them back or letting people off the hook. Darth Maul should've stayed dead. Just like bringing Palpatine back in the last movie was a complete ***-pull.

I would've rather either Moff or Bo got killed off. Probably Bo. She wasn't strong enough to lead the people of Mandalore. Then you can do, Mandalore in chaos as the people are divided in the absence of a leader. Show turmoil in Mandalore. Have Din struggle with the feelings of failure, having chosen to give Bo the Darksaber in the first place symbolized as a refusal to accept his destiny causing an imbalance in the force. The spirit of the Darksaber possesses Moff because it's the true spirit of Mandalore. Moff not being a Mandalorian meant he could not control all the feelings of the Mandalorian people. Make it so it's all of the force ability of the Mandalorian people channelled into one as an explanation as to why the Mandalorians are force incencitive whilst allowing for one to wield all of their power in unison. The hero's journey is of him taming his heritage and assuming his rightful seat on the throne of Mandalore. It follows the true prophecy of the dark side of the force showing the dark side isn't necessarily evil in and of itself, but is more often used by those who seek to inflict evil. The rule of one meaning only one can wield the Darksaber and the prophecy of the apprentice slaying the master to assume his title being that of how the Darksaber must be passed down through mortal combat.

Blasphemy!!
It's animated means it'll actually probably be good
At the very least it''ll be watchable. Copium.

That is one of the two things I mentioned. The other you ignored.
Because other things I mentioned myself and they are correct, why would I mention them, when I wanted to question incorrect stuff.
You suggested Nyame has higher MDB, Revelation is very heavy on MDB and Malignance lacks MDB. So it's 1MDB that makes set lacks MDB to being very heavy on MDB. Interesting.

Perhaps this is common knowledge but since it’s not often mentioned, I’d like to point out that beyond the rank of Expert, there are several (in .dats) that have never been implemented: Authority, Luminary, Master, Grandmaster, and Legend.
I completely forgot about this! Thanks for sharing!

All I wanted from the Mandalorian was some crazy cool lightsaber lore like the darksaber was the Masamune of the universe. Maybe it was some evil light saber with the spirit of the dark side of the force trapped in it, constantly craving more power. The blade being so heavy because it was literally sucking the force right out of you. The only one who could truly wield it is the one who could tame the spirit of the dark crystal.
Instead it just gets crushed like it's nothing undermining the lore of it's hilt being indestructible.

I don't think they went in hard enough on the warrior's code aspect of Mandalore.
So much potential squandered because the franchise is owned by disney adults.
I prefer Maul as an inquisitor tier chronie. All these spin-offs and attempts to ascribe character nuance are ridiculous. They try to make him sophistacted. I would've rather he just died in episode one and they called it a day. No need for more backstory. Instead disney adults will be like: wouldn't it be cool it we gave Maul robotic legs and brought him back? No. No it wouldn't. It would be stupid...

So... Maul: Shadow Lord opinions?
Vain attempt by a failing company to revive a brand they themselves dragged straight into the ground, kicking and screaming and blaming the audience for not liking the slop they got handed to them.
Pass.

My Mahogany Pole synths support the "Tier 0 cannot HQ2/3" rule. I make Mahogany Poles and NPC them (come to my "making mog gardens work 4 u" TED talk). The recipe is level 68 and my highest woodworking level is 70. I have made 56 Mahogany Pole +1s and they were all Tier 1 HQs.
Kind of wild that no shield crafter noticed this before now.

So all you need to do is use 1 of the subcraft gear?
If you have your subcraft capped, yes.

yo came back few days ago, tried some Ambu VD yesterday and could farm it consistently enough with this strat/comp:
2x DD (used WAR and DRG but any well geared DD is fine tbh although main boss is weaker to piercing)
BRD COR WHM
1x PUP tank, but a real tank could work too.
Strat:
WAR or 1 of the 2 DD goes in to pull the Freyja and Frigg to the start corner, PUP grabs Skathi and tanks it far away from the party, while the 2 DDs make sure they're close to each other and keep both NMs close to let 1 dd tp the add and WS the boss.
At that point 1 DD focus Big Boss with piercing dmg, while the other DD can tp and provoke on Frigg while WSing the Boss, which should die pretty quickly like that.
If DD with the add pulls hate from the main Boss, can also WS the add instead of the boss every 1-2 WS, or use jumps if you have them to dump enmity.
At that point you focus the Frigg (weak to slashing it seems) and once it's dead, you join the PUP to kill Skathi (bg says weak to blunt but whatever, any good geared DD will be enough)
If everything goes well it takes like 1 minute to clear, more if you get charmed once or twice or if COR and BRD won't deal dmg.
Things that can potentilly put your run at risk:
Eagle Eye Shot unlucky triple hit on a single DD that could one shot (happened twice but can easily recover, just slows the run)
For this specific reason, I strongly suggest NOT to use Berserk or Last Resort type of abilities until the first NM is DEAD.
WHM gotta stay far away from both pup and DDs to make sure he'll be able to Stone the petrifications if they happen, while if you are NOT facing NM while that move goes off you'll also get 5 count doom on top of petri, so be carefull.
Finally, once you learn the "positioning" for this fight, you're gonna pull to the corner at start and basically never move until you gotta kill the last add tanked by the PUP or tank, use this info to focus all your attention towards the chat log to avoid the charm dances, their animation is very long so as long as you're focused on the chat log you should be able to avoid them!
IF DDs get charmed and everyone is positioned correctly, it's gonna be easy to outrun the charmed ppl until it runs out, no big deal!
Clear time expected, between 1 to 3 minutes per run depending on group dps and how many times u get charmed! Good luck

I understand the points Capuchin is making, but at the end of the day most players (most, not all) also have other realistical aspects they need to consider:
1) The amount of money, time and grind this set requires
2) The limited inventory space
Unless you have like 4-5 jobs only, you need to draw a line somewhere, you can't keep 400 items for a single job, you get to a point where you need to start accepting compromises.
Also, the fact that after all that effort the Revelation is better than malignance in multiple aspects, but sadly not in a couple of critical ones... leaves a sour taste in your mouth.
I dunno, that's how I feel at least.
It's a wonderful set but yeah, very strong sour taste in the back of my mouth alas.
Revelation is a very interesting option for BRD compared to NIN, imho. If not the whole set at least a few pieces.
But yeah, I guess a lot of people would reply with "lolDDbrd".

Revelation having very low meva can't be called "like Malignance". Having just DT is not like Malignance.
What I actually said, and the full quote is important, is "kind of a Malignance-like set in some respects" And it is.
Malignance is a set designed as good TP gear featuring STP and high accuracy (and some PDL+), but ALSO strong defensive stats. Particularly excellent magic evasion paired with DT-, and also used to be among the best evasion options.
Revelation is a set designed as good TP gear featuring STP and high accuracy (and some PDL+ and DA from augments), but ALSO strong defensive stats. Particularly excellent physical evasion paired with DT-, and also notably strong DEF HP and MDB.
I also explicitly noted that Malignance has a notable Magic Evasion advantage. But that's not always what you care as much about on NIN. If I'm tank/DDing a mob that only uses threatening physical moves, I'd prefer better eva and def over magic evasion that isn't benefitting me. If something where the major threat is shadow-wiping AoE magic attacks? OK, Malignance might be my preference there.
Sure, my point is Malignance has it all, meaning you don't have to choose, you dont have to swap. It's a perfect all-in-one TP set. Revelation has critical hole (meva) that you need to be aware of and it limits it's usage in many fights.

Since there's doesnt seem to be any super huge changes with Limbus gear for Smn, I've only updated the Guide abit.
And I've added a Melee/WS section. I used Kastra's Dmg Simulator for Tp/Ws setup.

Cerberus.Echohawk said: »SE asking people to farm thousands of low ilvl mobs for the crafting shield's cards seems like they were begging people to just bot it. Roughly how many cards/hour do people get when farming for synth spheres (when not botting).
I mean, they (spheres, not cards) are tradable and sellable, so...they didn't necessarily intend for people to bot, though everyone resorts to it anyway.
I haven't farmed many cards because they break a lot and the drop rate is terrible. I think I got maybe 1-3 per set of enemies which respawn every 5 minutes? So probably ~20/hr, but I don't have a huge dataset so don't quote me on it. It's not a lot.
I've mentioned it in other threads but IMO the best bang for buck you can get (by far) is Lower Delkfutt's Tower, provided you have another character (yours or a friend's) who can park there in your party. You get 6 Delkfutt Keys every 5 minutes, plus Lightning Clusters on a regular basis. I've spent countless hours up there and farmed *** of Reverb/Distortion. The ease of farming these formed the basis of my strategy for my shields.

If you equip a Lucky Egg while synthing it should help your HQ rate. Make sure you have the right moon phase/compass direction and cross 4 sets of fingers as the synth completes.

For smn with just bunzi gloves, null cape and ifrits favor, smn already sits at 40% DA before considering anything else as well.

Had you titled the video like you did years ago "my endgame sets" you'd get less pushback, I did understand, I said the same thing, I'm just saying you should have only quoted him and not add him quoting me as well lol quoting him replying to me there is bridging an entirely different discussion that has nothing to do with the mislabeling

Absolutely amazing experience! If you do a third tower, would you consider capping to both level 30 and gear level 30? It would be a shame to trivialize the challenges you've made for this zone.

*RDM - loses access to Regal Gem, so you'd have to apply your debuffs first, then Hoxne (which is kind of clunky). Fight specific of course I think RDM doesn't even have a debuff that lasts less than 3 minutes and the duration enhancements come on top. It's a bit inconvenient but compared to BLU who's debuffs usually last 30-90 seconds and their buffs not lasting much longer either it's still heaven, even if they have to reapply the enchantment every 4-5 minutes.
SMN - relies on sachet for avatar level

I started experimenting video editing with Sony Vegas and, while this get the job done, it feels clunky at times.
Feels like a product that could be more polished regarding UX.
Even just starting, I feel like the clunkiness of it already destroys a solid 30% of productivity just to deal with it
Ugh, Im about to give Capcut a try…

The only hard reality is that it seems you've lost your creativity and ffxi has never been about equality. It's all about situation and niche. I'm sorry that you lost fun due to meta.
This here is why i've been playing around with different sub jobs and seeing what works with different trusts, it's fun being creative and trying different setups.
"Here's a neat set I made for a niche I didn't think was served. If you like my idea, you can watch this video I made trying it out."
And suddenly none of the previous two pages worth of argument happened. Amazing isn't it? Hey now, don't wrap me up in that, I'm in agreement with you and said the same thing on the previous page. My quote is directed at an entirely different person for a different subject lol
You misunderstand. My quote is what he SHOULD have done. IE if he had done that, no one, not even myself, would have found any reason to call him out on his ***. But alas, he did not.
